Hiking
The Troglodyte Houses of Bourré are troglodyte dwellings and galleries dug into the limestone rock. There you can discover the history and culture of the troglodytes, the people who live in these underground houses, and learn their art of living close to nature. You can also discover the secrets of silk production, as this site was once a silkworm farm in the 17th century. The guided tour lasts 90 minutes and is led by one of the locals, who will share their stories and thoughts with you.
